Yep - mine is off - I learned really early it was the best way to go - cos you can't even tell who wants to talk to you each time anyway in order to screen them - perhaps if that feature was added I might consider adding it back on - but for now I note anyone who has tried is usually from somewhere and someone I am not in the least interest in talking to....

Mine is on all the time. I had trouble at the begining but I don't anymore. If it opens and it's not someone I want to talk to, I just close it and I have only ever had to block one person. Most people are respectful of if I want to talk to them or not. I don't get IM'd very often anymore. crying rolling on the floor laughing

Isn't the whole idea to chat to people and hopefully meet someone interesting? Doesn't turning off your IM make it more difficult?
